The audience's hobbies may include playing rock music, Guitar Hero, Video games, Sports. The audience consists of mixed sexes, very close to half and half it is hard to tell by the massive size of the target audience.
Many will be likely to attend gigs, concerts and festivals of the same genre. The majority could possibly be fans of other similar artists such as Franz Ferdinand, The Strokes, Coldplay, Muse and The Arctic Monkeys.
Apart from teens, an age that will also be particularly interested are people who were influenced by 80's alternative and electro rock music which The Killers were also influenced by.
The target audience would mainly download albums and songs online due to the introduction of easy and quick access to songs. However older parts of the target audience would go out at physically buy the album over the counter as it is the way of buying music they have grown up with and the traditional way to buy an album, this method of buying music is dying down though due to p2p file sharing and itunes making songs easy and fast to download at a instance rather than going out to find a record shop to buy the CD as a result of this many record stores are disappearing from high streets.
Some of The Killers target audience could be inexperienced bands of Alternative / Indie Rock that have looked at The Killers as inspiration for their own music and how they might inspire to be as big as The Killers.
